Controller / VP of Finance

When we say we are building the health plan that can fix America we aren’t being tongue and cheek. That’s our battle cry. The largest most creative self-insured employers have figured out how to cut 40% from their healthcare costs. We are making their best practices plug-and-play for any employer. Our goal is to put money back in people’s pockets while making healthcare suck less. In the process we’ll build healthier businesses, communities, and of course, people.

We spent 2017 piloting our platform with a group of 25 employers and they moved to our full platform on January 1st. We were in Techstars Boulder 2017, are a certified B-Corp and are backed by Better.vc, Techstars Ventures and Royal Street Capital.

We seek fresh ideas, new perspectives, a diversity of experiences, and a dedication to delight that will help us better meet the needs of the many people and businesses that rely on us every single day.

Drive the requirements and execution of the financial components of our market-facing solution.

Are you looking for a finance job where you can do it right the first time? This position will define and build financial processes and an accounting system that will scale with the company.

We pay medical bills on behalf of our members to take advantage of existing market discounts and we incorporate a share of the savings we deliver into our revenue. You’ll will track and execute payments for these parts of our SaaS offering and provide financial leadership for the company.

Follow the funds! You’ll define accounting requirements that include an audit-friendly trail of payments from claims through funding for customer healthcare escrow accounts, and member payments.

Strategize how to best work with financial, lending, and collections vendors as part of our market-facing solution. You’ll select and manage these partners.

Define and implement reporting, business analysis and billing systems to support revenue models. These currently include a monthly subscription fee and shared savings on both unit costs and utilization. You’ll incorporate 3rd-party market data and past customer claims data in your analysis and reporting.

You’ll develop and drive necessary financial policies, procedures, and systems to scale accounting with business growth.

You’ll structure the reporting of our finances in a way consistent with a third-party administrator and a SaaS company.

You’ll partner with the CEO to develop the best financial model for forecasting business and securing future financing including lines of credit, SaaS loans, and venture capital.

Is this role right for you?

Do you have a fervor for financial transparency for clients and are constantly thinking how to implement it in all financial related communications to the customer, the member, and to the benefits advisor?

Are you assisting a CFO and ready to level up or are you a CPA who thrives with the mix of strategy and business and accounting required in a startup environment? Or maybe you are already a controller but want new challenges and growth.

You don’t need a healthcare background but experience in FinTech or complex e-commerce or SaaS would be great.
